Clan Of Xymox - Mysterium

My journey from Berklee's hallowed halls to the vibrant world of jazz has been an odyssey of discovery, with the blues serving as my guiding light. The intertwining of these genres is not just a historical footnote but a living testament to the evolution of American music. The blues, with its emotive simplicity and authentic storytelling, remains the beating heart that fuels the intricate dance of jazz... musical education is not just about mastering technicalities, it's about embracing the emotional depth that resonates through every note. The blues taught me to listen with my heart, respond with intuition, and let the music unfold organically. It became the bridge connecting past and present, tradition and innovation.

So, with immense gratitude for the educators, mentors, and the rich musical legacy they shared, I carry the spirit of the blues into every improvisation. As a jazz enthusiast, I understand that the blues isn't just a genre, it's a foundational language, a common thread weaving through the vast tapestry of jazz. This harmonious affair between blues and jazz is an eternal melody, and as I continue to navigate the ever evolving landscape of music, I do so with the soulful resonance of the blues guiding my every note.

David Sylvian - The First Day

When the story of Blues is told to the world, the small town Holly Springs, Mississippi and the North Mississippi region as a whole, is often left out. But, those who know, know that this region is the Hill Country, and it is the home of a style of blues unlike others and continuing to shape popular music culture. Mississippi Hill Country Blues, like all forms of the blues, is deeply rooted in the cultural memories and experiences of those who first performed it. It builds upon the African and diasporic emphasis upon rhythm as not just beats and timing, but giving syncopation and polyrhythm both rhythmic elements, an elevated role in music much like that of the melody. The driving rhythm and aggressive groove, established primarily by sitting on one chord for long phrases, set Hill Country Blues apart from other forms like Delta Blues.
